16 of Bryan's stickers is 3 more than
17 of Adam's stickers.
Let
17 of Adam's stickers be 1 u.
- Number of stickers that Adam has = _____
- Number of stickers that Bryan has = _____
- Total number of stickers = _____
- Difference in the number of stickers between Adam and Bryan = _____
(a)
17 of Adam's stickers = 1 u
77 of Adam's stickers = 7 u
Number of stickers that Adam has = 7 u
(b)
16 of Bryan's stickers =
17 of Adam's stickers + 3
16 of Bryan's stickers = 1 u + 3
66 of Bryan's stickers = 6(1 u + 3) = 6 u + 18
Number of stickers that Bryan has = 6 u + 18
(c)
Total number of stickers
= 7 u + 6 u + 18
= 13 u + 18
(d)
Difference in the number of stickers between Bryan and Adam
= 7 u - (6 u + 18)
= 1 u - 6 u - 18
= 1 u - 18
Answer(s): (a) 7 u; (b) 6 u + 18; (c) 13 u + 18; (d) 1 u - 18
